Hello friends how are you all doing today I hope all is well and you all are having a nice and wonderful day, today I will be taking part in a contest organize by @abdullahw2 which is titled "My Relationship With Sleep"

Studies show that for an adult, the normal sleep duration r a healthy living is 7–9 hours daily, out of the 24 hours in a day. However, I'll be straight with you: because of hustling, school, and blogging, all thanks to our MTN nightlife (night plan)—instead of sleeping, I browse at night because night bundles are cheaper and more affordable.

So each night, from 9:00 p.m. (after the gym and chores) to 10:00 p.m., I write and compose my articles. Then, from 11:00 p.m., I activate my night bundle to publish my article and download movies.

Most times, I finish everything a few minutes after 1:00 a.m. before sleeping. I wake up at 6:00 a.m. for school, so I sleep for 5 hours or less.

On our side, there is always light at night, especially from midnight, so I have developed the habit of doing most of my important things at night. For example, if I am preparing for exams, I like reading at night when everywhere is quiet. Also, if I have school assignments after I finish browsing and publishing my article, I will start doing my assignments. Sometimes, at the end of it all, I might only get three hours of sleep before morning.

The one thing I would say that disturbs my sleep the most is my mobile phone, because with it is where I do my hustling and I can't just lay back and look at my phone laying there when I know that I can use it to generate some capital that would help me to take care of my financial needs.

^{Take for example two days back I needed money to my GST textbook, and I'm not a kind of person that has someone to turn to in times of trouble, I got my money from my phone and bought the text book all thanks to my night hustle}

Throughout last year when I was working as a waiter in a hotel it was a night business that I would have to go to work by 4:00pm and come back home in the morning, I hardly had time to sleep, the money was good and I made a fortune but I felt the negative impact within me that was why I had to quit the job before I loose myself in the process.

Some of the negative impact I felt as a result of lack of sleep where;

• I felt stressed out, like all the time
• I normally experience some minor dizziness
• Puffy eyes and sometimes red eyes
• I tend to forget some things a lot

• It helps improve the functioning of our immune system
• Sleep helps in repairing and relaxing our blood vessels for proper functioning
• It helps in weight management
• It helps in improving our overall mood and reduces stress
